Robert Pattinson falls for family’s pregnancy prank

British actor Robert Pattinson was given a shock when his sisters duped him into thinking his mother was pregnant as part of an April Fool’s Day prank.

The “Twilight” star’s two elder siblings teamed up to play a trick on him on April 1, and he believed them when they announced his mum Clare was expecting a new baby.

He says, “I think my sisters kind of always wished I was a little sister. I always wanted a little brother. They told me on my 18th birthday that my mom was pregnant – on April Fool’s Day. I went to school just rejoicing and basking in the fact that I could have a mini-me. At 18, I was so convinced – it was the most disappointed I’ve ever been in my life.”
